Best avocado toast EVER! 2 people could probably share this 1/2 order, the basil aoli, feta and balsamic glaze are sooo good together with the bacon, acid and egg! Great service, friendly staff, and lots of other yummy menu items, fresh baked goodies and fresh brewed coffees. Make this a must try for breakfast/brunch or lunch!

5/5 Excellent

"The property is well maintained and has a beautiful pool and balconies are very nice! The breakfast was good also. The only thing they should add is having a key card to get into the breakfast room and hotel premises. It is a great location and nice view of the ocean. The office staff were very helpful with restaurant recommendations. "
